Commit dcdc12e added compatibility code to treat NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B
as if it were the same as NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE. However, the new value
is in bytes while the old value was in pages which means they are not
interchangeable.
The only place the reclaimable slab size is used is as a component of
the calculation done by arc_free_memory(). This function returns the
amount of memory the ARC considers to be free or reclaimable at little
cost. Rather than switch to a new interface to get this value it has
been removed it from the calculation. It is normally a minor component
compared to the number of inactive or free pages, and removing it
aligns the behavior with the FreeBSD version of arc_free_memory().

This change appears to primarily be a name change for the enum. Had
to update the test logic so that it works so long as either one of
these is present (favoring the newer one). Additionally, as this is
newer, it only shows up in node_page_item, so this commit doesn't
test zone_page_item for the same enum.

Provide infrastructure to auto-configure to enum and API changes in the
global page stats used for our free memory calculations.
arc_free_memory has been broken since an API change in Linux v3.14:
2016-07-28 v4.8 599d0c95 mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node
2016-07-28 v4.8 75ef7184 mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node
vmstats
These commits moved some of global_page_state() into
global_node_page_state(). The API change was particularly egregious as,
instead of breaking the old code, it silently did the wrong thing and we
continued using global_page_state() where we should have been using
global_node_page_state(), thus indexing into the wrong array via
NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE et al.
There have been further API changes along the way:
2017-07-06 v4.13 385386cf mm: vmstat: move slab statistics from zone to
node counters
2017-09-06 v4.14 c41f012a mm: rename global_page_state to
global_zone_page_state
...and various (incomplete, as it turns out) attempts to accomodate
these changes in ZoL:
2017-08-24 2209e409 Linux 4.8+ compatibility fix for vm stats
2017-09-16 787acae0 Linux 3.14 compat: IO acct, global_page_state, etc
2017-09-19 661907e6 Linux 4.14 compat: IO acct, global_page_state, etc
The config infrastructure provided here resolves these issues going back
to the original API change in v3.14 and is robust against further Linux
changes in this area.
